Getting started

The switch must be pressed in for the shredder to operate.

Operating instructions

Note:
• Bear in mind that
paper and CDs/
DVDs/Credit cards
must be fed into
the shredder through
different openings. Paper
• Do not feed paper, CDs, DVDs or credit cards into the shredder at
the same time. Feed different kinds of materials into the shredder
separately.
• Let the shredder cool down for 30 min after it has been used
continuously for 2 min (2 min is the maximum length of time that
the shredder should be used continuously).
• Empty the waste bin regularly. If the bin is full it is difficult or
impossible to continue feeding the shredder.
Capacity
• The shredder can process up to 10 sheets (A4, 80 g) at one
time. If you run thicker paper stock the number of sheets
the shredder can process is reduced. The maximum width of
the paper should be 22 cm (A4).
• If you want to shred smaller sheets of paper, you should feed them
in the centre of the feeder opening. Otherwise, the shredder will
not start automatically.
Avoiding overloading and jamming
The shredder is equipped with an overload safety cut-off. The safety
cut-off is tripped and the shredder is switched off if:
• The shredder is run at maximum capacity for too long. Example:
If paper, CDs/DVDs or credit cards are fed into the shredder
continuously for over 2 minutes.
• If the maximum paper capacity is exceeded by feeding more than
10 sheets of paper into the shredder at the same time, or if it is
not fed in straight.
To reset the shredder after the overload safety cut-off has tripped:
1. Remove the plug from the wall socket and let the shredder cool
for 30 min. Clear the blades of any paper remnants.
2. Connect the plug to a wall socket and set the control switch to
REV mode. Excess paper remnants will exit through the feeder
opening. Remove the plug from the wall outlet and remove any
paper remnants from the blades.
3. Set the switch to AUTO mode.
Care and maintenance
CD/DVD/Credit card
• Always unplug the appliance from the wall socket before cleaning.
• Feed sheets of lubrication paper (Clas Ohlson art.no 36–4038)
into the shredder at regular intervals to keep the machine running
smoothly.
• Clean the product by wiping it with a dry cloth.
• Clear the blades from paper remnants using a sharp object.
• Empty the waste bin regularly. A full waste bin can contribute to
a diminished shredder performance.
